TOPIC: Are You
Tornado
The alcoholic is like a tornado roaring his way through the lives of others.Hearts are broken. Sweet relationships are dead.Selfish and inconsiderate habits have kept the home in turmoil.We feel a man is unthinking when he says sobriety is enough.He is like the farmer who came up out of his cyclone cellarto find his house ruined. To his wife, he remarked,"Don't see anything the matter here, Ma.Ain't it grand the wind stopped blowin'?"
- Alcoholics Anonymous, p. 82
Thought to Ponder . . .
Wisdom is knowing what to do, virtue is doing it.
AA-related 'Alconym' . . .
F I N E = Frustrated, Insecure, Neurotic, Emotional
